*EDITING

You slowly peel your eyes open to notice that your still in the position you fell asleep in, except Ciel's arms were wrapped around your waist and he had hid head lying on your side. You try to wiggle out of his grasp but to no avail. Every time you tried, it only made his grip tighten. After trying so much, it seemed Ciel was holding on to you for dear life. Ensuring that you wouldn't move. With a sigh, you eventually gave up and continued lying there. Then, out of the blue, giggling could be heard coming from the kitchen. "Eri?" You asked cautiously, curious about what all the giggling was about, but also a bit nervous about what it could be.

After a moment, Eri stuck her head around the kitchen archway. "Yes mam?" Eri asked tilting her head a bit. To be able to see Eri, you had to bend over the arm of the chair because Ciel had your waist captured. When you were finally able to see Eri, she was covered in flour. Not just as if she accidently wasted some on herself or a little on her apron, this was as if she jumped in the whole bag! Noticing how silent you were, Eri started to step forwards. "Do you need something mistress?" Eri asked, continuing into the living room. "DON'T COME IN, DON'T COME IN!" You blushed and flagged her away as best as you could. "Uhm, alright." Eri blinked before returning into the kitchen with a smile.

"Barely hid him..." You sighed, looking down at Ciel. "I'm going to require an escape plan..." You spoke aloud and pondered on the thought. "C-Ciel?" You asked poking both his cheeks, but he just shifted in response. "Come on, sooner or later someone's gonna see us." You blushed at the thought and let out a small cough. 'I guess the thought of me being sick slipped both of our minds..' You thought, giving up and lying back down. While you continued to lie there, the giggles continued and you were eager to know what it was. Then you got an idea, you grabbed a couch pillow and slid it in-between you and Ciel. "Finally!" You said slipping out from under him and the pillow then had a small sneeze. I wonder why he wears that eye-patch.. You thought, looking back at Ciel. Curiosity got the best of you and you reached for the string at the back of his head before his eyes shot open. "What are you doing?" Ciel asked sitting up. "I-I don't know." You shrugged and Ciel face-palmed. "Hey (Y/N) wha-." You cut him off by putting your hand over his mouth. "Shh, do you hear that?" You said listening closely and the giggles continued but this time there were fake screams.

"What the devil, was that?" Ciel mumbled from under your hand. "I dunno." You whispered and released Ciel. Ciel began walking towards the archway to the kitchen, and your close behind. "I kinda don't wanna know." You mumbled holding onto Ciel's arm. When you and Ciel reached the archway you stuck your head around the door frame and saw Eri and Sebastian making desserts, they both were covered in flour. "So lemme get this straight, they were making desserts and it turned into a flour battle?" You asked and sighed. "Grown-ups are weird." You and Ciel said in sync. "Oh yeah, I wanted to give you this." Ciel said and passed you a nicely decorated card. It read:

The Phantomhive's Ball
You are here by invited to the Phantomhive's mansion for a grand ball, wear something formal with a mask.
~The Phantomhive resident

"I thought you came over' 'cause I was sick." You put your hands on your hips. "I did, I just wanted to invite you as well." Ciel growled and ruffled his hair. "If you say so." You crossed your arms. "I don't know if I can come." You mumbled and sneezed. "What do you mean?" Ciel asked. "I'm still sick, you know." You stretched, then Ciel walked over to you. "You'll be fine tomorrow, I just know it." Ciel cupped your cheeks and planted a kiss on your fore-head.

"Also, you sneeze like a kitten." Ciel smiled.
The Phantomhives stayed for the rest of the day until (Y/N) and Ciel fell asleep.
